Racial Slurs
Massive list of the etymology of racist terms. Never before has such a cesspool of virulent racism been so interesting. Little did I know that there are many slurs for Canadians. I've never heard them before, then again, I'm Canadian -- nobody would slur me, for they know I would pop a cap in their ass.
Here's an excerpt of the Canada-related slurs. I've censored some of them so I have less explaining to do next time I visit my mother...
Slur | Represents | Reasons/Origin |
51st Stater | Canadians | Self-explanatory. |
Angie | Canadians | English-speaking Canadians. Short for "Anglophone" and used in Quebec, especially for Anglophones in Quebec province itself. |
Beaver-Beater | French- Canadians | Fur trade. |
Canadian | Blacks | Used as a masked replacement for 'N*****.' |
Cani**** | Black | Canadians Combination of Canadian and N*****. |
Cankee/Cankie | Canadians | Canadian-Yankee. |
Canuck | Canadians | From Johnny Canuck, emerging in 1869 as a "younger, simpler cousin to America's Uncle Sam or Britain's John Bull." Reborn during World War II as Canada's 'defender from the Nazi menace.' Could only be a slur if you say it the right way. |
Canucklehead | Canadians | Diminutive of Canuck. |
Cheeser | Canadians | Used primarily in northern Washington State, refers to Canadians who cross the border to shop for big blocks of inexpensive American Cheese. |
Coon Ass | Cajuns | French-Canadian Exiles who migrated to Louisiana. Fur traders. Originated during WW2 when the French soldiers heard the Cajun-French American forces speaking a very old version of the French language peppered with slang, they called them 'conasse', which translates roughly to mean 'cheap whore'. Of course the other non-Cajun members of the American forces heard this as "Coon Ass", and it stuck. |
Eh-Holes | Canadians | Canadians are known for saying 'eh?' a lot. |
Frostback | Canadians | A play on "wetback", altered to fit Canadians. |
Hoser | Canadians | From western-Canadian practice of stealing gas with a siphon, ending up with a mouthful of gasoline. Suggests low intelligence. On the Canadian TV show SCTV, "Bob and Doug McKenzie" always called each other Hosers. |
Ice N***** | Canadians | Canadian Blacks. It's cold in Canada. Coined by comedian Scott Thompson from the Kids in the Hall. |
Iceback | Canadians | Another take on frozen Wetback. See Frostback. |
Maple Leaf N***** | Canadians | Their flag has a maple leaf on it. |
Moosef***** | Canadians | Tom Green, a Canadian, mocked sexual contact with a moose on his television show. |
Newfie | Canadians | Newfoundlanders. Some of the people from Newfoundland are considered to be less intelligent. |
Nigloo | Blacks | In northern Canada, it refers to Blacks living way up north in the cold with the Eskimos. |
Puckhead | Canadians | For their love of hockey. |
Rubberhead | Canadians | Heads bounce off ice in hockey games. |
Seal-F***** | Canadians | Extension of sheep-f*****, roo-f*****, etc. |
Snowback | Canadians | Play on 'wet-back'. |
